    Bannon doesn't like H1Bs in general, even if he might admit that they bring in better workers. He wants the relatively lower level American workers to get those jobs.

    Actually you’re right since it’s a private platform but that’s not relevant. The election was over when the events in the suit occurred. Twitter won its identical case against TFM by the way.

    Bad things happen in darkness. Telecom is another example, and transparency has been very good there.

    The man-o-sphere has made inroads into making religion socially acceptable or encouraged.

    @jon-nyc said in No pronouns in email signatures: Your boss can insist you put your title, number and a jpg of the company logo along with the motto. A lot of times in the federal government, they don't insist. It's just that your email signature is automatically generated.

    @LuFins-Dad said in Bourdain was a pretty smart guy.: @Aqua-Letifer said in Bourdain was a pretty smart guy.: @Mik said in Bourdain was a pretty smart guy.: I like to cook something complicated at times, but only if I think it's going to taste great and be pretty healthy. I don't buy massively expensive cookwear and tools because I think it's wasteful. It's like smokers and grills - learn to cook on what you have. Developing that judgement will help you more than buying a $3K smoker. Ayep. 2 good knives, a decent cutting board and a pan can get you pretty damn far. Careful… That’s sounding pretty close to a minimalist brag… No, I've just worked in kitchens and I was taught how to use a knife.

    @89th Yeah, if I related our junior and senior high school exploits you would find you were an angel. Maybe a saint.

    @Doctor-Phibes said in Andy and Epstein: I'll believe it when I see it. Clearly there's a reason this hasn't happened. Blackburn of Tennessee tried to get them released, but she blames that Durbin of Illinois is stonewalling. Of course that was the previous administration and the previous congress. Searching around, Durbin's actions seem to be procedural. Let's see what happens.

    @Jolly said in Less than 12 hours...: @89th said in Less than 12 hours...: Not sure who she is, seems like a nice gal. Her intro made me think she is eloquent but also just taking a long way to say "we're gonna talk about news stories". Agree there is a right wing cancel culture (Trump is leading that, it seems) we should be careful of. For a better response, see Dana White (UFC president) and his statement about one of his fighters who ranted on a podcast about how Hitler was actually a pretty good guy and was trying to save his country. In short, he said the guy is dumb as shit... and a reporter asked if there would be punishments and White said basically, no it's free speech, it doesn't mean we have to like it, and if you don't like it you can watch him get his ass whooped in the UFC ring, lol. Thought you would know who Cooper was.

    @Doctor-Phibes said in If the LOTR characters did commentary on the movie: ....I just forwarded the link to her by email, and due to auto-complete came horrifyingly close to sending it to a customer who shares her first name. Hate it when that happens. Glad you caught it in time.
